Chapter 357
“The journey to Cloud Prairie will be dangerous, and I hope you could help us.” Xie Wanran smiled brightly.
“Miss Xie, you are flattering me. I would count on you and Mr. Shangguan.” Xiao Jinting scanned the place with his soul force and knew that there were two Golden Cores in Spiritual Medicine Sect. There was another one hiding in the cabin.
Xie Wanran and Xiao Jinting exchanged pleasantries for a while and parted.
On the hip of Spiritual Medicine Sect, several Foundation Establishment cultivators were gossiping.
“That’s the First Elder of Green Cloud Immortal Sect. I heard that guy is less than a hundred years old, but somehow he advanced to Golden Core at such a young age.”
“When a man attains the Tao, even his pets ascend to heaven. Xu Jin, is Xu Kai your cousin? He is at the advanced level of Foundation Establishment. I remember that I met him by accident two months ago. He was poor, and he was at the medium level.”
“Xu Kai has been stuck at the medium level for a long time. It’s normal for him to stay at the same level for decades. However, it is no surprising that he made the advancement overnight with the external help. He has a relative at the advanced level of Golden Core, so it is easy for him to make a small advancement. Perhaps he will advance to Golden Core very soon.”
“You are exaggerating.”
“I’m telling the truth. Having a powerful relative makes a big difference. Don’t forget that the sons of Xiao Jinting are all Golden Cores. Everyone says Mr. Xiao has the secret method that helps cultivators advance to Golden Core.”
“That’s true. Xu Jin, your cousin has found a powerful support. You are his cousin. Why didn’t you say hello and ask him to help you?”
…
As Xu Kai listened to the chatter of the crowd, his face turned green and white for a while. He and Xu Kai had fallen out for a long time. It would be kind of Xu Kai not to kick him when he was down. It was impossible for Xu Kai to help him.
Li Shuangshuang was depressed. Before they set off, Xu Chang knew that Xu Kai was going to the secret realm, and he asked them to make friends with him. As far as she knew, Yellow Crane had told Xu Kai everything to clear themselves of the crimes. How could they make friends with Xu Kai and Xiao Xiaofu?
…
“Uncle, these spiritual rhino pendants…,” Xiao Xiaofu said uneasily.
Xiao Jinting checked the pendants and said, “They are good. Keep them.”
“Thank you, Uncle.”
Xu Muan asked Xiao Xiaofu and Xu Kai to rest.
“Miss Xie seems to be generous!” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jinting nodded and said, “Yeah.” Xiao Jinting felt that Xie Wanran had something similar to his jade space. However, her treasures were not as valuable as his.
Xiao Xiaofu sat in the cabin, deep in thought.
“Xiaofu, what’s wrong?” Xu Kai asked.
“Li Shuangshuang and Xu Jin are with the Spiritual Medicine Sect,” Xiao Xiaofu said.
Xu Kai’s face darkened and he said, “I have cut all the ties with the Xu family. If they look for troubles, I won’t show mercy.”
Xiao Xiaofu nodded and said, “Good.”
Good-natured as Xiao Xiaofu was, he was irritated with Li Shuangshuang and Xu Jin. If Xu Kai had not been a member of the Xu family, he would have taken revenge. He was afraid that the Xu family would come to beg for mercy if he attacked them.
…
The ship flew for four days until they heard a commotion.
Xiao Jinting stood at the bow of the ship and looked into the distance with grave eyes.
Xiao Xiaofu came out and asked, “Uncle, what’s up?”
Xiao Jinting waved his hand lightly and said, “It’s fine. We are passing the territory of an irritable demonic ape. It seems we can’t pass without fighting. Go into the cabin.”
Xu Muan looked at Xiao Jinting and asked, “Do you need my help?”
“No, you guard the ship. It’s just a monkey, easy to handle,” Xiao Jinting said as he flew out.
Xu Muan glanced at Xie Wanran’s ship. The Spiritual Medicine Sect should have sensed the danger, but they didn’t come out. Evidently they wanted to watch the fight.
The demonic ape was huge, about three hundred meters. It seemed to be in oestrus, so it was emotional.
Bang. Xu Muan saw Xiao Jinting hit the ape from afar. Xiao Jinting didn’t move, but the ape took a few steps back.
Xu Muan thought to himself, “The Heavenly Demon Body Refining Manual is indeed extraordinary. This ape has reached the advanced level of Golden Core. Besides, the ape was famous for its strong physique among the demonic beasts.”
“Uncle Xu, is Uncle in danger?” Xiao Xiaofu asked worriedly.
Xu Muan said indifferently, “No, don’t worry.”
Xu Muan looked calm. A demonic ape was easy to handle. Xiao Jinting used to be chased by two Peak Nascent Soul demonic beasts and several Nascent Souls in Nebula.
Xiao Jinting and the ape fought for a while, and the ape started to retreat.
Xiao Xiaofu released his soul force and saw the fight between Xiao Jinting and the demonic ape.
Compared to the gigantic ape, Xiao Jinting was too small. It was like an ant fighting an elephant. However, the ape retreated under Xiao Jinting’s attack.
“Uncle Xu, Uncle has a strong physique! Are all Golden Core cultivators so strong?” Xiao Xiaofu asked.
Xu Muan smiled and said, “You’ll know when you become a Golden Core.”
Xiao Xiaofu smiled and said, “Uncle Xu, you are joking. I don’t know when I could form the core.”
“With your uncle around, you will be able to do that soon.”
Xiao Xiaofu blushed and started to imagine the good future.
Xiao Jinting took out five swords and cut many wounds on the ape.
Two Golden Core Red Tailed Scorpions flew out from Xiao Jinting’s cuffs. They were highly toxic and poisoned the ape to death in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Jinting collected the demonic beast and returned to the ship.
